    Summary

    “Alastor?” Vincent calls out more urgently. He doesn’t waste any time and swings the door open, stepping quickly into a narrow set of descending stairs. “Are you okay?”

    There’s a familiar iron tang in the air. He recognizes it well from the operating room. It’s blood and the smell thickens, permeating the air as he approaches the last step. Vincent’s heart pounds in his chest. For there to be that much blood-- he’s already rolling his sleeves up preparing for a massive injury.

    Alastor looks up at him, a furrow in his eyebrows. He’s wearing a white apron stained red. A meat cleaver in one hand. A human body laid out on the steel table in front of him, its two legs missing. The blood is still dripping. It hasn’t even started coagulating yet.

    Vincent’s breath stutters. He stares, not comprehending what this is; what he’s seeing.

    Alastor sighs and wipes his hands on his apron, setting the knife beside the body. “Oh, my dear, I wish you wouldn’t have come down here.’’
     
    Or Vox is on his way to a surgical conference and after a broken down car is picked up by a kind local to use his phone, unfortunately he stumbles across what happens in the basement.

    Summary

    “It would be a shame,” the seraphim said at last, “to let such raw power simply disappear.”

    “I think you have a much more… purposeful existence ahead of you.”

    ***

    Heaven decides killing Vox would be too easy. Worse, it might make him a martyr.

    Instead, they turn him into something much more useful: a living relay between realms, wired into a machine built to monitor Hell itself.

    Now Vox exists in the currents that thread through Pentagram City—fragmented, furious, and forced to report to the very angels who imprisoned him.

    Or: a post-Season 2 fallout AU with EldritchHorror!Vox

    Summary

    Of course, even as he says it, he knows Vincent won’t confess anything— Vincent never admits when he’s unwell, even when he’s visibly dripping with cold and wrapped in three layers of blankets. Already, Alastor is braced for the dismissive response. An equally dismissive jab is ready on the tip of his tongue for when Vincent replies: “I just…I don’t…feel so good.”

    Alastor rolls his eyes. “Well, you said that last time, an—”

    Then, he blinks, the tools clattering out of his hands in his haste to turn around. “I…beg your pardon? Did you say you’re…not feeling well?”
    ----

    In the middle of a disposal trip, Vincent collapses. Without answers and wearing three pints of their newest victim, all Alastor can do is take Vincent to the cabin and...do what he can.

    Summary

    Exiled to the VeeTek R&D division and hidden away from the public after his disastrous breakdown, Vox finds a device that lets him see Alastor's thoughts. When he realizes that the radio demon really is in love with him, he decides to try and get Alastor to act on his feelings one last time- especially because Alastor might destroy much more than himself if he can't confront the truth.

    Seeing Alastor's memories play out in front of him forces Vox to think about his own, but can he learn from his past mistakes? Or will another attempt at winning Alastor over cost Vox what little he has left?
